[Deltasix]

Well, that sucked. What are other peoples thoughts on the movie?

[marcus]

any r5 torrent out yet??

[marcus]

megan fox still hot as hell...

[NJBob]

I never go by what other people say or what I read. I loved the first one. I saw it at iMax. It's just hard core eye candy, man and good fun. Don't look for profound meaning or hidden message. Just sit back and be entertained. I'll be back to talk more or apologize after I see it. LOL “Satan’s Camaro is STALKING me!” http://smilies.vidahost.com/contrib/drowned/iroc-front-yellow.gif

I thought it was ok but the first one was a lot better. I found this website talking about how all of Mike Bay's movies are all the same and it didn't click until they showed clips from his movies to prove this. Watching that made me not like this movie as it made it look like Armageddon with robots.

[darthbauer]

umm Bad Boys 1&2 LOVE EM, The Rock Love it, The island mehhh, Transformers LOVE IT TRANSFORMERS 2 LOVE EM WITHOUT HAVING SEEN IT

What about Pearl harbor? Its all the same crap hashed out again and again with just different actors.

Watch and see.

All of Transformers 2 was like that (slow motion and sunsets)

good special effects, lacking in plot/theme/charactarization/resolution

[Astroman]

I liked it, but the 1st one was better. I had forgotten it came out yesterday until someone sent me a txt.

[Astroman]

On a side note, megan fox's necklaces were from a local couple that makes their own stuff here in Oregon. Can't remember if it's Portland or Salem.

[Yarold n Kumar]

The movie was mindless fun. It has the same amount of plot as the cartoons. What can you expect from a movie about cartoon robots?
:clap:

Something as entertaining as the first movie. Not the pile of crap that was the second.

^ yeah that...first one was somewhat ok to me, not impressed by it the first time, so i am not so excited to see the 2 comes out. just my hell of an opinion. my buddy said "it was hella tight", to me, Gundam>Mike Bay's Transformer. i rather watch Gundam instead, at least still gives me opportunity to fantasize piloting an unit to do work! :biggrin:

[TinyGiant]

i like the film. predictable but fun. good special effects. stupid plot.. but heck.. its based off a cartoon.

i liked the preview for GI JOE though :) and 2012 looks EPIC!

[Morgan]

too many baddies at once... transformers 1 was way better

[darthbauer]

That's the thing, its not even based off the cartoon. It's based off the action figures.

[Sabretooth]

I just saw it tonight, it was good...special effect are good, but it seems like they starting to grab at air for plot lines badly, I mean they come up with the oddest stuff, and just added things that dont make sense. Stuff from the first movie just pops out of nowhere, its hard sometimes to figure out where stuff begins and ends.

There are some interesting characters in this one though, although I think they couldve made the action sequences last a bit longer, it seemed like they were telling too much story and were told to cut out alot of action scenes to keep the movie under 2.5 hours...lol

[contraband831]

weak plot jump all over the place, fight scenes make this movies worth watching, overall I enjoyed it! but, no matter what Transformers Kick Arse...

[minired5stby]

Just see the movie I liked it alot. The scene in Jordan at that big building made out of rock was awsome due to the fact that I could say that I was there before. The place they call Petra that is.

[hatchbackkid82]

It was really ok. Some cheesy moments, BUt overall great action and special effects

[NJBob]

Going tonight! iMAX in about an hour. Film at eleven. :biggrin:

[Kioshi]

Movie was good overall....i didnt like how the whole gangsta accent came in those two robots, that seemed outta place.....too much pussy/slang jokes made it more of a teen movie rather than a o'l timer movie.

Fight scenes were awesome and Optimus actually fights in this one pretty good :) Megan Fox is always lookin hot~

[NJBob]

I liked it a lot and I agree about the urban chatter on the two small bots. People take for granted how the CGI/art/effects are in these movies. That thing was freakin' awesome. I'd like to see it again without the a-hole in front of me who couldn't turn off his cell phone and the woman behind me who's little girl needed to talk and whine thru the whole thing. I am reminded of why I like to go to weekday afternoon matinees. No crowds.

Oh and I have to add...Megan fox is so HAWT! She had several slo-mo running scenes....reminded me of Baywatch. LOL

[highwaypass]

great special effects,and i simply love it :biggrin:
hope they will use toyota instead of chevy in transformer III (maybe the title: revenge of second fallen?).LOL

megan fox still hot as hell...

humna humna humna!!!!:drool:

[Kioshi]

^ someone was bound to post up a pic by now.....

[ezhacker1]

one big American car commercial, plot was bad, character development, bad. action intense.

[33OH]

I enjoyed it.

[NJBob]

Kcalb Siray - Humina Humina is right! She's not so shiny in this picture. I loved her slo-mo running shots...especially in the IMAX! :eek:

[Kal-El]

Saw it yesterday.

First I'll say I loved the first one. This one however left me wondering how such a script could be used in the biggest budget movie of the year. The story was very weak with dialogue that was insultingly cheesy. Seems like Micheal Bay cares about nothing but huge special effects (which were indeed very good). It was good for the eyes but didn't do anything to keep me engaged in what was going on.

But it was expected as critics destroyed it as well.

It really makes us appreciate a film like the Dark Knight where superb special effects can go hand in hand with a superb script with Oscar caliber acting. I thing Micheal Bay needs to go to a Christopher Nolan class.

[Kal-El]

one big American car commercial....

Yup, even more so than the first one. It is so completely shameless how it's done to. It really does look like a Chevy commercial throughout the whole film.
I don't mind a bit of product placement here or there but for an entire film to exist solely as an ad campaign is pathetic.

How much did GM finance this film??

Thing is, a movie like this doesn't even need a sponsor. It made $200,000,000.00 in it's first 5 frickin' days.

that poor Audi in the beginning, i mean really?... that easily done with?

the Saturn made me laugh, least it was wrecked.

[BDD]

I thought the movie was OK, but 3 things did bug me:

1. Optimus Prime goes from Truck to Robot, back to Truck within seconds at the beginning for no reason at all.

2. Robot heaven... with the primes near the end.

3. Most of the action scenes were too close to the robots making it difficult to see what was happening.

The rest was all right. Sounds are pretty neat too.

TRANSFORMERS III (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1399103/) <<<<jeez already talking about it

[Treyz]

OK so the local paper gave it 3 stars .. ok. Then day later, national critics gave it bad reviews.

Here's the deal in my eyes. I saw it a little over a week ago and I can deff see where the critics were coming from.

1) There was too much "ghettoness" from the robots.

2) Optimus Prime as the last of the primes? If anyone follows Transformers, there were more.

3) The development of the Decepticons still facinates me on how not they are in reality of the Transformer universe. Instead, they are these Terminator like robots rather than what they looked like in the past. I think the closest they got with the development of the robots at all was Optimus Prime.

4) A human goes to Robot Heaven ... with no Primus available ... ? Nuff said.

5) Jetfire is a geezer.

6) the list can go on and on.

Don't get me wrong, the CGI was great and all, but the storyline was eh and Holywood really needs to stop taking games, comics, and other things of our past, and ruining it for the newer generations.

I mean, I just watched X3: The Last Stand again last night and remembered how they butchered up the X-Men. I'm surprised Stan Lee went along with it.

[goku87]

i liked the preview for GI JOE though :) and 2012 looks EPIC!

Dude, I've been waiting for 2012 forever. Accidentally stumbled across it on IMDB when there was nothing on it yet. Somewhere in the ballpark of 1.5/2 years ago, so it's been a long wait for me lol. And plus it's Roland Emmerich so it's gonna have the best special effects EVERRRRRRR!!!11 And yes, GI Joe looks friggin awesome.

[spoiler alert]

Cut action to make room for story? WHAT STORY?! I can sum the story (or lack there of) up in one sentence:
Stop the Decepticons from destroying the sun.

TRANSFORMERS III (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1399103/) <<<<jeez already talking about it

But hopefully Michael Bay wont be directing it. :biggrin:

And since we are talking about movies anyway:

For all you GoW fans out there, they plan on making ALL THREE games into a trilogy of movies. Here's the first one:
